...that the vast majority of people who they claim "celebrated" Charlie Kirk's death actually:
a. Decried his murder and all acts of political violence;
b. Expressed condolences to Kirk's family; and
c. Simply pointed out that a and b notwithstanding, Charlie Kirk had a long history of making divisive and even hateful statements that continued up until the day he died, and that his murder, while tragic, did not erase that inconvenient fact.
